Needing to update local mandates to reflect those already in place at the state level, the town council at its December 9 meeting approved a first draft amending the existing ordinance pertaining to accessory dwelling units, commonly referred to by the acronym ADUs.
In passing the revised legislation initially, the council also forwarded it to the planning board for its review, as required, at the latter's meeting later in December and also set up a second reading/public hearing on the matter at its next monthly gathering in January. Upon second passage at that time, the amended ordinance would take effect.
The updates were made to the Chapter 32-Zoning of Warren's ordinance book. The specific revisions were in Article VIII-Zoning District Use Regulations, Sec. 32-47 Reside
